Predators Hockey

The Nashville Predators have had a wonderful season, and the boys really enjoy hockey. They play games all the time at home with their "hockey guys" and with their hockey set. Jackson knows all the players and their numbers. Shea Webber is Jackson's favorite player, and Martin Erat is Drew's favorite player. We have been blessed to attend several games this season. The boys like to arrive early and watch them practice. Because of this, they have both gotten several pucks from the players (which they think is so cool!). When we were in Tampa this fall, we were able to see the Preds play the Tampa Bay Lightning.Jackson and Drew both got pucks at this game, because there were not many Preds fans at this away game. Jackson got a puck from Shea Webber, and Drew got one from Shane O'Brien. They were so thrilled!
The whole family enjoyed watching the Predators win on the road!
In December, we went to see the Preds play with some people from Andy's work.
Thanks to Katie, we were able to go to the game on St. Patrick's Day. The crowd was more rowdy than normal that night.

In April, we were able to attend the Predators playoff game against the Ducks. The crowd was so loud and it was a really fun game.
Doesn't Jackson look like a real hockey player with his front tooth missing?!? HA!
The Parkers say, "Let's Go Predators!"
